2 TECHNICAL WRITER / TECHNICAL COMMUNICATOR Produce instruction manuals and other supporting documents to communicate complex and technical information more easily. They also develop, gather, and disseminate technical information among customers, designers, and manufacturers.
3 QUICK FACTS: TECHNICAL WRITERS
4 DUTIES Determine the needs of end users of technical documentation Study product samples and talk with product designers and developers Work with technical staff to make products easier to use, and thus need fewer instructions Organize and write supporting documents for products Select photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts that increase users understanding Get usability feedback from customers, designers, and manufacturers Revise documents as new issues arise
5 TECHNICAL WRITERS CREATE operating instructions, how-to manuals, assembly instructions, frequently asked questions pages. After a product is released, technical writers also may work with product liability specialists and customer service managers to improve the end-user experience through product design changes.
6 Technical writers often work with engineers, scientists, computer specialists, and software developers to manage the flow of information among project workgroups during development and testing. Therefore, technical writers must be able to understand complex information and communicate the information to people with diverse professional backgrounds.
7 Applying their knowledge of the user of the product, technical writers may serve as part of a team conducting usability studies to help improve the design of a product that is in the prototype stage. Technical writers may conduct research on their topics through personal observation, library and Internet research, and discussions with technical specialists. Increasingly, technical information is being delivered online, and technical writers are using the interactive technologies of the Web to blend text, graphics, multidimensional images, sound, and video.
8 QUICK FACTS Technical writers held about 49,500 jobs in The following industries employed the most technical writers in 2010:
9 HOW TO BECOME A TECHNICAL WRITER A college degree is usually required for a position as a technical writer. In addition, experience with a technical subject, such as computer science, Web design, or engineering, is important.
10 EDUCATION Employers generally prefer candidates with a bachelor s degree in journalism, English, or communications. Many technical writing jobs require both a degree and knowledge in a specialized field, such as engineering, computer science, or medicine. Web design experience also is helpful because of the growing use of online technical documentation.
11 WORK EXPERIENCE Some technical writers begin their careers not as writers, but as specialists or research assistants in a technical field. By developing technical communication skills, they eventually assume primary responsibilities for technical writing. In small firms, beginning technical writers may work on projects right away; in larger companies with more standard procedures, beginners may observe experienced technical writers and interact with specialists before being assigned projects. Prospects for advancement generally include working on more complex projects, leading or training junior staff, and getting enough work to succeed as a freelancer.
12 IMPORTANT QUALITIES Communication skills. Technical writers must be able to take complex, technical information and translate it for colleagues and consumers who have nontechnical backgrounds. Detail oriented. Technical writers create detailed instructions for others to follow. As a result, they must be detailed and precise at every step for the instructions to be useful. Imagination. Technical writers must be able to think about a procedure or product in the way that a person without technical experience would think about it. Teamwork. Technical writers must be able to work well with others. They are almost always part of a team: with other writers; with designers, editors, and illustrators; and with the technical people whose information they are explaining. Technical skills. Technical writers must be able to understand and then explain highly technical information. Many technical writers need a background in engineering or computer science in order to do this. Writing skills. Technical communicators must have excellent writing skills to be able to explain technical information clearly.
13 PAY
